 LITERATURE IN MONTENEGRO presente by MonteNet
Since the fall of the Crnojevics' state, until Vasilije Petrovic's 'History of Montenegro' (Moscow 1745) the literary activities in Montenegro were reduced to, mainly, rewriting of the old manuscripts and noting down chronological remarks.
After the short pause (1851-1860) caused by the desperate defense of Montenegro from the Turkish attacks, the Montenegrin literary activities were revived, in early 1860s, by the very Prince Nicholas I (Nikola) Petrovic, who turned out to be very fruitful writer.
Nicholas I had aspirations to be a literary patron for Montenegro, at least, and peculiarly enough, was favoring non-Montenegrin writers.
